~ Full Moon on lake with Mars at Sunset before the total eclipse of the Moon ~
This was the beautiful view on our waterway just after sunset this evening with the Moon glitter on the water and Mars the only other bright light other than the full Moon in the eastern sky; a swan passing by on the water just completed the pretty picture :-)
 
My photos were taken with a Canon 70D camera and a Tamron 18-400mm lens.
 
We will see the first part of the lunar eclipse here on the east coast of Queensland early in the morning (28th July) but it does not begin (U1) until 4.24am with totality beginning at 5.30am. By the time totality ends, the eclipsed Moon will have set. At least we’ll see the first half of the eclipse…that is, if the clouds don’t spoil the show!
